If you kill a human and make another baby is that an offset credit ?

Question

.
Is it ludicrous or what, companies and famous people living in palacial homes, traveling by jet, vacationing in places that import "the best"?

They brag on this crazy idea of offset credits.

What is that kind of thinking? I just can't get over it. And every day I read more about this crazy project.

I might laugh if it weren't so pathetic.

Thanks for your answers and any argument you are willing to promote... for this... this ...paradox.

Answer 1

Anothe analogy might be if you kill a human and you pay someone else to sit on their *** and not kill someone that they said they were thinking about killing.

This is the essence of carbon trading.

Answer 2

A better analogy is you and your spouse use offsets to loose weight. You eat anything you want, she starves. Together you lose a pound a week, even though you have to buy bigger paints every two weeks.
